MrEpsYtown Posted March 24, 2020 Posted March 24, 2020 Good re-sign. I’m not sure he makes the team, but competition at the bottom of the receiver depth chart is not a bad thing to have and this dude adds a unique skill set.

With OTAs most likely being canceled and IMO training camp getting delayed or cut down having guys that know the system and have produced at the WR is very important. Bringing in a rookie and asking him to learn and get on the same page with Josh in a shortened offseason is a lot to ask. This signing help the Bills. How much and How long is his contract??? We don't know yet but almost certainly a 1 year contract for vet minimum which I think is about $825k for him. 1
MJS Posted March 24, 2020 Posted March 24, 2020 I would have been surprised if they didn't bring him back. Honestly I would have expected another team to show interest. He's a decent gadget guy with experience on special teams as well. Maybe there was some interest but McKenzie wanted to come back.
John from Riverside Posted March 24, 2020 Posted March 24, 2020 I am happy to see this. He is good on those jet sweeps and a good depth receiver just don't count on him to catch corner end zone passes While I still think Claypool is in play.....this also makes me think our 2nd round pick could be edge or running back 3

With the QB wearing 17? Hell, give McCloud #13 and the highly likely rookie 18. That’ll just leave 11 & the retired #12 not on the roster. Gone are days of 80 & 83. Lofton/Reed Moulds/Price Diggs will be doing those running plays this year, if there is a year. Or maybe not.....want to keep the wear and tear down on your #1 receiver.

JOSH HUFF Posted March 24, 2020 Posted March 24, 2020 I think MCkenzie is a great resign!! He has speed and quickness in the slot position! Can be a good special team returner too. 2
dezertbill Posted March 24, 2020 Posted March 24, 2020 Can't have enough speed. Either him or Foster will break out soon. If so and Duke can take it up another notch that would be awesome. 1
First Round Bust Posted March 24, 2020 Posted March 24, 2020 didn't he also get some reps as a CB during the season stink-ale versus Jets ? 1

Bulldog Posted March 24, 2020 Posted March 24, 2020 I guess we won't be needing any additional corner back depth now! Seriously - I thought it was fun when McKenzie stepped in at cornerback when we were in a personnel pinch last year. It also says a lot about the young man's attitude that he was willing to do it - not to mention that it also shows a lot about how the coaching staff feels about him. Never know how things will work out in the cut throat world of the NFL - but hope things work out well for this guy, whether it be with the Bills (hopefully) or elsewhere. 1

I’m not sure there’s room on the roster now for a never-has-been CFLer.. Nice story though, from yesteryear. 28 minutes ago, bigK14094 said: Diggs will be doing those running plays this year, if there is a year. Nah, he’s needed DOWNFIELD!

Estro Posted March 24, 2020 Posted March 24, 2020 (edited) I still think we may draft a WR, but at this point I'd be surprised if it's with our 2nd round pick At this point we are pretty well stocked with: 1. Stefon Diggs 2. John Brown 3. Cole Beasley 4. Isaiah McKenzie 5. Andre Roberts 6. Duke Williams 7. Robert Foster Knowing most teams don't keep more than 6 WR's on the final roster, any WR drafted will likely have to bump one of McKenzie, Williams, Roberts or Foster off the roster. Not saying that won't be a possibility, but there are other positions on the team (DE, CB, RB, OL) that are higher on the priority list. Edited March 24, 2020 by Estro 1

I think as of now those 5 positions will be highly considered in the 1st 4 picks for Beane.

Diggs, Brown, Beasley and Roberts are locks. With the 55 man limit there might now be space for 7 including Roberts as their primary return man. If they draft a guy (still think they will somewhere) then I expect it to come down to McKenzie, Foster and Duke for 2 spots.... as it essentially did last year. But they could have company in that chase from UDFAs who in any other year are drafted receivers and will likely be more effective competition from Sills and Easley.

DE, RB, CB, or even O-line could still be in play at pick 54 based on BPA. I'm more inclined to believe RB or WR in rounds 3 or 4.

And, I doubt there will be a really dynamic WR by pick #54.
